The Tommy Tant Memorial Surf Classic has been chosen by Nautica to be featured in its “Ocean 2 Ocean” series online.
"Ocean 2 Ocean" features stories of men, women and children who are passionate about their coastal lifestyle. According to the campaign's website, these people "bring to light our beautiful but fragile oceans and waterways, and share similar values with those of us who champion the spirit of life at the water's edge."
The annual Tommy Tant Memorial Surf Classic celebrates the life of Flagler Beach's Tommy Tant, who died in 1998 from an aortic aneurysm.
Proceeds from the event fund the Tommy Tant Memorial Scholarship, awarded to local college students, as well as the Flagler Food Bank.
“We were really excited to be chosen," event coordinator Will Tant said. "Having the Nautica crew attend and document the event last year was an honor. They did a great job capturing the spirit of my brother’s event."
